Week Links - November 30, 2007
November 30th, 2007
A sampling of Portland-related real estate links from the last week or so. Forecasters and prognosticators are making the rounds. I’ll share additional notes next week.
Home Builders Association of Metropolitan Portland forecast
Analysts Jerry Johnson, John Mitchell & David Ludwig address the Home Builders Association of Metro Portland. Net message: A slow 2008, perhaps slower than 2007, but a strong rebound in 2009.
Ryan Frank of the Oregonian covers the HBA Forecast. KGW’s coverage of the same event
Portland prices defy national trends
The front-page article in the Oregonian this week that buoyed some spirits.
Jeffrey Kempe, local real estate broker, drags us into his Conversation Pit with timely thoughts about green building, the upcoming Buena Vista auction, and a significant change to Oregon state law as it pertains to sales by out-of-state homeowners.
Yet another New York Times article
The NYT continues its love-fest reporting on the Northwest, this time on the coastal town of Manzanita.
(I should mention the previous NYT article which documented the in-migration phenomenon surrounding Portland quoted my recent clients Richard & Lila. Cheers and hope you are enjoying the new digs!).
